  • A Survey of the Development of Geometry up to 1870
    A Survey of the Development of Geometry up to 1870∗ Eldar Straume Department of mathematical sciences Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) N-9471 Trondheim, Norway September 4, 2014 Abstract This is an expository treatise on the development of the classical ge- ometries, starting from the origins of Euclidean geometry a few centuries BC up to around 1870. At this time classical differential geometry came to an end, and the Riemannian geometric approach started to be developed. Moreover, the discovery of non-Euclidean geometry, about 40 years earlier, had just been demonstrated to be a ”true” geometry on the same footing as Euclidean geometry. These were radically new ideas, but henceforth the importance of the topic became gradually realized. As a consequence, the conventional attitude to the basic geometric questions, including the possible geometric structure of the physical space, was challenged, and foundational problems became an important issue during the following decades. Such a basic understanding of the status of geometry around 1870 enables one to study the geometric works of Sophus Lie and Felix Klein at the beginning of their career in the appropriate historical perspective. arXiv:1409.1140v1 [math.HO] 3 Sep 2014 Contents 1 Euclideangeometry,thesourceofallgeometries 3 1.1 Earlygeometryandtheroleoftherealnumbers . 4 1.1.1 Geometric algebra, constructivism, and the real numbers 7 1.1.2 Thedownfalloftheancientgeometry . 8 ∗This monograph was written up in 2008-2009, as a preparation to the further study of the early geometrical works of Sophus Lie and Felix Klein at the beginning of their career around 1870.

  • Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach the History Of
    Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Report No. 51/2004 The History of Differential Equations, 1670–1950 Organised by Thomas Archibald (Wolfville) Craig Fraser (Toronto) Ivor Grattan-Guinness (Middlesex) October 31st – November 6th, 2004 Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 01A45, 01A50, 01A55, 01A60, 34-03, 35-03. Introduction by the Organisers Differential equations have been a major branch of pure and applied mathematics since their inauguration in the mid 17th century. While their history has been well studied, it remains a vital field of on-going investigation, with the emergence of new connections with other parts of mathematics, fertile interplay with applied subjects, interesting reformulation of basic problems and theory in various periods, new vistas in the 20th century, and so on. In this meeting we considered some of the principal parts of this story, from the launch with Newton and Leibniz up to around 1950. ‘Differential equations’ began with Leibniz, the Bernoulli brothers and others from the 1680s, not long after Newton’s ‘fluxional equations’ in the 1670s. Appli- cations were made largely to geometry and mechanics; isoperimetrical problems were exercises in optimisation. Most 18th-century developments consolidated the Leibnizian tradition, extend- ing its multi-variate form, thus leading to partial differential equations. General- isation of isoperimetrical problems led to the calculus of variations. New figures appeared, especially Euler, Daniel Bernoulli, Lagrange and Laplace. Development of the general theory of solutions included singular ones, functional solutions and those by infinite series. Many applications were made to mechanics, especially to astronomy and continuous media. In the 19th century: general theory was enriched by development of the un- derstanding of general and particular solutions, and of existence theorems.

Une histoire de l’universalité des matrices mathématiques. F. Brechenmacher, prépublication, version du 16/11/2008. Une histoire de l’universalité des matrices mathématiques. Frédéric Brechenmacher (1). Résumé. Cette enquête s’appuie sur des méthodes quantitatives afin de dégager un corpus et une période de référence (1920‐1938) à partir desquels seront mis en œuvre des jeux d’échelles entre local et global, temps court et temps long (1850‐1938). La « théorie des matrices » des années trente manifeste une dynamique d’universalité qui se nourrit de phénomènes multiples et peut s’analyser en termes de passages au global de pratiques locales. Avant qu’un cadre disciplinaire, comme celui de l’algèbre linéaire, permette d’envisager des structures sous tendant les pratiques algébriques, les identités de telles pratiques ne portent le plus souvent pas de significations théoriques mais manifestent des aspects culturels propres à des réseaux dont les identités sont complexes.

  • The Equivalence Problem and Signatures of Algebraic Curves
    ABSTRACT RUDDY, MICHAEL GERARD. The Equivalence Problem and Signatures of Algebraic Curves. (Under the direction of Irina Kogan and Cynthia Vinzant). In this thesis we study the application of the differential signature construction to the group equivalence problem for complex algebraic curves under the projective action and its subgroups. Given such an action G, a signature map assigns to a generic algebraic curve an irreducible polynomial, called the signature polynomial, with the property that two curves are G-equivalent if and only if they have the same, up to scaling, signature polynomial. We show that for any action of G, one can construct a pair of rational differential invariants, called classifying invariants, that define a signature map. Given a pair of classifying invariants, elimination algorithms allow one to straightforwardly compute a curve's signature polynomial. In practice, however, these algorithms are computationally intensive, and determination of properties of signature polynomials without their explicit computation is of interest. We derive a formula for the degree of the signature polynomial of a curve in terms of the curve's degree, the size of its symmetry group, and some quantities depending on the choice of classifying invariants. We show that for a given set of classifying invariants and a generic curve of fixed degree, the signature polynomials share the same degree, which is an upper bound. We also show that they share the same monomial support and the same genus. For the projective group and five of its subgroups (the affine, special affine, similarity, Euclidean, and special Euclidean groups), we give sets of classifying invariants and use the degree formula to derive the degree of the signature polynomial for a generic curve as a quadratic function of the curve's degree.

  • Lucjan Emil Böttcher (1872‒1937) ‒ the Polish Pioneer of Holomorphic Dynamics
    TECHNICAL TRANSACTIONS CZASOPISMO TECHNICZNE FUNDAMENTAL SCIENCES NAUKI PODSTAWOWE 1-NP/2014 MAŁGORZATA STAWISKA* LUCJAN EMIL BÖTTCHER (1872‒1937) ‒ THE POLISH PIONEER OF HOLOMORPHIC DYNAMICS LUCJAN EMIL BÖTTCHER (1872‒1937) ‒ POLSKI PIONIER DYNAMIKI HOLOMORFICZNEJ Abstract In this article I present Lucjan Emil Böttcher (1872‒1937), a little-known Polish mathematician active in Lwów. I outline his scholarly path and describe briefly his mathematical achievements. In view of later developments in holomorphic dynamics, I argue that, despite some flaws in his work, Böttcher should be regarded not only as a contributor to the area but in fact as one of its founders. Keywords: mathematics of the 19th and 20th century, holomorphic dynamics, iterations of rational functions Streszczenie W artykule tym przedstawiam Lucjana Emila Böttchera (1872‒1937), mało znanego matema- tyka polskiego działającego we Lwowie.

  • GOLDEN OLDIE 18 on the Three-Dimensional Spaces Which
    GOLDEN OLDIE 18 On the three-dimensional spaces which admit a continuous group of motions Luigi Bianchi Memorie di Matematica e di Fisica della Societa Italiana delle Scienze, Serie Terza, Tomo XI, pp. 267–352 (1898). EDITOR’S NOTE This article methodically studies (locally) the symmetry and isometry classes of all 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. For each of the possible orbit dimensions 1 and 2 (intransitive actions) and 3 (transitive actions) and for each possible symmetry class of group actions, explicit canonical coordinate expressions are derived for the full Killing vector Lie algebra and the metric by solving the Killing equations. A representative line element is then given parametrizing the isometry classes of a given symmetry type modulo constant conformal transformations, and specializations which admit higher symmetry are studied. For the case of simply transitive 3-dimensional isometry groups, this classification of metrics by symmetry class coincides with the classification into nine isomorphism classes of the isometry groups themselves (Bianchi types I – IX), now known together as the Bianchi classification. This article followed soon after Lie’s classification over the complex numbers of all Lie algebras up to dimension 6 and Killing’s discovery of his famous Killing equations at the end of the nineteenth century. All of Bianchi’s work was well known by the mathematician Luther P. Eisenhart (1876–1965), a professor, chair, dean and important educator in the Princeton University Mathematics Department from 1900 to 1945 [1], who served as a principal source of English language discussion of much of the early work in Riemannian geometry and Lie group theory through his two books Riemannian Geometry (1925) [2] and Continuous Groups of Transformations (1933) [3], which contain numerous references to Bianchi’s work.

  • Idempotenten in Groepringen
    FACULTEIT WETENSCHAPPEN EN BIO-INGENIEURSWETENSCHAPPEN DEPARTEMENT WISKUNDE Idempotenten in Groepringen Proefschrift ingediend met het oog op het behalen van de graad van Master in de Wiskunde Inneke Van Gelder Promotor: Prof. Dr. Eric Jespers MEI 2010 FACULTY OF SCIENCE AND BIO-ENGINEERING SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS Idempotents in Group Rings Graduation thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Mathematics Inneke Van Gelder Promotor: Prof. Dr. Eric Jespers MAY 2010 Voorwoord De lente van 2005, nu exact vijf jaar geleden, een studiekeuze maken bleek plots een niet al te makkelijke opgave. Hoewel een vijf jaar durende studie eerst vreselijk lang leek, weet ik nu dat ik destijds de juiste keuze heb gemaakt. De afgelopen vijf jaren zijn immers voorbij gevlogen en een diploma komt nu duidelijk in zicht. 'Afstuderen' is vaak een synoniem voor 'thesis schrijven': D´eThesis. Een zware taak die ik vol spanning, maar toch ook met de nodige vrees, tegemoet ging. Die vrees was echter nergens voor nodig. Ik houd er een zeer leuke en leerrijke ervaring aan over. Alleen daarom al kan ik voor mezelf stellen dat ik tevreden ben met het resultaat. Nooit had ik gedacht zoveel te kunnen bereiken op enkele maanden tijd. Graag wil ik in het bijzonder mijn promotor bedanken. Eric Jespers, bedankt voor de goede begeleiding, motivatie en de vrijheid die je me gaf. Tevens bedankt dat je me de kans gaf gedurende een volledige week een conferentie bij te wonen. I would like to thank Angel´ del R´ıo.Thank you for your patient explanations, for your interesting lectures and talks and for the everlasting enthousiasm.

  • And the Shadow of Camille Jordan)
    Revue d’histoire des mathématiques 17 (2011), p. 273–371 SELF-PORTRAITS WITH EÂVARISTE GALOIS (AND THE SHADOW OF CAMILLE JORDAN) FreÂdeÂric Brechenmacher Abstract. — This paper investigates the collections of 19th century texts in which Evariste Galois’s works were referred to in connection to those of Camille Jordan. Before the 1890s, when object-oriented disciplines developed, most of the papers referring to Galois have underlying them three main networks of texts. These groups of texts were revolving around the works of individuals: Kronecker, Klein, and Dickson. Even though they were mainly active for short periods of no more than a decade, the three networks were based in turn on specific references to the works of Galois that occurred in the course of the Texte reçu le 15 février 2011, accepté le 15 mars 2011.
